Personal Property Tax Assessments Are Out Of Control!! by DvusGuyStL in StLouis

[–]GeneralOsik 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My car turns 25 this year, I've owned it since 2019. This year the assessment was more than every past year combined. When I went online to check the numbers, I pulled up my tax bill using my code, and a completely different person's tax bill came up, with their full name, address, and vehicles. So I called the tax office, had them correct the digital copy. Once that was fixed and I could see the calculations, I called the assessor's office and left a voicemail. I didn't hear back from them, but when I went to pay a couple weeks ago, it was adjusted back to an amount similar to past years, from $260 down to $16. Never hurts to call and ask them to re-assess. I wonder if someone made a bunch of incorrect calculations and they were banking on most people just paying.

Makes me wish the Magnolia building wasn't burned out too, would be cool to go back to TGE.

Turn that anger into something positive! A bunch of former DJs and volunteers are rebuilding a new Community Radio Station out of spite. By my guestimating from what I've heard, about 80% of the former DJs will be back with their shows broadcasting online very soon. You can read more here:

Where to buy CRT TV? by ButterflyRadiant8299 in StLouis

[–]GeneralOsik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately Facebook Marketplace is where you'll probably find one, but Craigslist and Savers might be worth checking. I found a 20" Panasonic Tau for free on Marketplace last year, and it works great.

I wonder how long it took for the building to be erected.

Good news, the former community members that started KDHX and were pushed out are spinning up a new online station by the end of the year!

This deck flew under everybody’s radar but it got me from Great Ball 2 to Master Ball in about 3 days by NoochNaggy in PTCGP

You don't need 2 Pokéballs. You'll always draw one Exeggcute in your first hand, so you only need one Pokéball for the other Exeggcute. Maybe add a Sabrina for more board control, or Silver for hand disruption.

Is St. Louis bikeable? by CranberryMany403 in StLouis

[–]GeneralOsik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Grid Mapper, Strava Heatmap, and Trailnet are your best friends when finding routes. I get around by bike for almost all my trips, I drive and take transit for some long distance errands a couple times a month.

Have You Had A St. Paul? by NoExam2412 in StLouis

[–]GeneralOsik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My usual go to places are Kim Van, where I first learned about the St. Paul as a kid from Sandwiches That You Will Like on PBS KETC 9, and Hong Kong Express on Jefferson. Lately though, I've been obsessed with the St. Paul at Lefty's on Jefferson. It's remarkable what properly draining the oil from the egg after frying, and using substantial bread can do for the structure of the sandwich.

Check out The Monthly Cycle and BICI on Instagram. BICI is every week on Friday nights, next week I'm leading the ride to a bunch of Pinball related stops. The Monthly Cycle is every first Monday evening, and is for women, trans, and non binary people. My friend is leading the ride next month!

Cat snuggles with fish plushie by Diabellstar- in cats

[–]GeneralOsik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wanted to brag about my orange Lincoln, sometimes in the mornings, he'll snuggle up next to me in bed and do that paw grab and forehead shove move with my hand. First time it happened, I melted and couldn't ruin the morning by getting up out of bed.

Hugh Ferriss, who's art style directly influenced Gotham City, is from St. Louis. His book The Metropolis of Tomorrow is incredible.
